Mushroom Obsessed!

 

More Mushrooms! I made more mushrooms using Air Dry Clay. I used twigs for the stems on the larger mushrooms and hot-glued the tops before painting. The two smaller ones were completely made from the clay. Painted with folkArt Acrylic Paint and then sealed with Modge Podge Gloss. Arrangement is sitting on a piece of bark with some moss interspersed. Fun Project!

Making Mushrooms

Made these fun, cute little mushrooms from air dry clay and potted them in my vintage planter. What's not to love!

I did say I was mushroom obsessed!
